After a moment's hesitation, Yan Zhou quickly walked towards Chu Wuyang, a clear look of embarrassment on his face.
"Madam, what are you doing here?"
Chu Wuyang's gaze remained fixed on the direction the car had departed; from her angle, there was no obstruction of the view.
She clearly saw the back half of the person getting on the bus—a woman—wearing high heels and fair legs.
She asked, "Who is that?"
Yan Zhou hesitated before saying, "One of President Jing's guests."

Yan Zhou felt a headache coming on and waved his hand, signaling him to leave first.
